In Islamic tradition, Dhul-Qarnayn (also spelled Zulqarnain or Zulkarnain) is a figure mentioned in the Quran who travels to the ends of the earth and encounters a people who request his help in building a barrier or dam to protect them from the tribes of Gog and Magog. The barrier is made of iron, copper, and molten lead, and it blocks the passageway between two mountains. According to Islamic tradition, Gog and Magog are a mystical people or tribe who will be released near the end of time to wreak havoc on the earth before they are ultimately defeated by Allah. The exact location and nature of the barrier or portal mentioned in the Quran is not specified, so there is considerable debate among scholars as to its historical and geographic context.

The story of Zulqarnain and the wall mentioned in the Quran (Surah Al-Kahf) is a subject of interpretation and there are different opinions among scholars about its historical and geographical context.

According to some interpretations, the wall mentioned in the Quran refers to the barrier that was built to protect people from the tribe of Gog and Magog, who were considered to be a destructive force. However, there is no consensus on the exact identity of Gog and Magog, and their existence and location remain a matter of debate.

Some scholars believe that Gog and Magog refer to historical or mythical peoples, while others consider them to be symbolic representations of evil forces. There are also various theories about the location of the wall and the identity of Zulqarnain, with some associating them with specific historical figures or events.

The Gog Magog portal is mentioned in the Quran as a portal that was closed by Zulqurnain due to a wall construction. The exact location of the portal is unknown, and there is much debate among scholars as to its exact meaning and purpose. Some believe that it is a metaphorical reference to a spiritual barrier between good and evil, while others believe it is a literal portal to another realm.
